Let’s Rock with The Jeemo: The Party Jeep

The Jeemo: Party Jeep in Baguio

The jeep or the jeepney is the most common means of transportation in the Philippines. It is patterned from the US Army vehicle used in the Second World War and as the decades go over, the jeep was used as mode to transport people from one place to another. Passengers used to say “para” when they are already near their destinations. But I guess if you are the party-ish creature who always loves to sing videoke, dance with flickering colorful lights and be wild all the night, you will never say “para” when you are inside The Jeemo: The Party Jeep.

So What Really Happened in Baguio at 9.5˚ C?


On Friday, January 18, 2013, Baguio was swept away with cold winds at 9.5 C.
Just last Friday, January 18, 2013, it was in the news that the temperature in Baguio already dropped to 9.5˚C. According to PAGASA, it was the coldest recorded temperature in two years time, following the 9.8˚C drop in January 2011. The 9.5˚C temperature was recorded at 5:00 in the morning. The question here, how cold is 9.5˚C for local tourists to flock in the city mountain of Baguio?

The Ship and the Boardwalk in Subic


Ship on the waters of Subic Bay, Philippines
The Boardwalk in Subic is comparable to Roxas Boulevard in Manila only that you don’t get a full view of a sunset because the mountain barriers are half of the view. Along the sea side of Subic are ships and yachts and you don’t really want to leave Subic without a souvenir picture of you with a backdrop of a ship (not a passenger ferry). The floating book store was also there when we went to Subic, and it might just have gone to other Asian countries after the Philippines.

Hollys BBQ Chicken Restaurant Subic: Eat-All-You-Can Style



Not just chicken barbecues, Hollys Restaurant in Subic also offers fruits and organic foods.

If you are looking for a Subic restaurant at the expense of an eat-all-you-can buffet style, then probably you are thinking Hollys BBQ Chicken Restaurant. Hollys Restaurant is located at the corner of Canal Road and Santa Rita and is adjacent to Subic International Hotel. It’s got this sliding door and a feel as if you were actually inside a crew ship or a private plane, because of their waitresses. And their food is great too, I can recommend this restaurant to future tourists of Subic.
